is there a way to see, without converting numbers to binary and performing a
a bitwise and, that:

        131.155.72.0/255.255.254.0

means all addresses from 131.155.72.0 through 131.155.73.255?  is there
short cut for this?

something like "255 means that quad is firm, 254 means you can go one
higher, and 0 means the quad can be anything"?  i know that's "loose talk",
but is it generally true?
